FEBRUARY FARRAGO.
Minor Events of Town and
Briefly Stated.
Country
This world is all a fleeting show
For man's infatuation;
A little rain, a little snow-;
You plod along, and reap and sow;
Life's journey done away you go
To swell the conflagration.
Soiree tonight at Wingate hall.
The McKinley club meets tonight over
The Chronicle office.
Mr. W. A. Kirbv has adorned his store
front with a bright red anwing.
Misses Frazier and Michell are being
examined today for state diplomas.
The weather forecast for today and to
morrow is occasional snow and slight
temperature changes..
An auction sale of Sam Klein's goods
has been going on today. The goods go
pretty well, proving that there is consid
erable money in circulation.
The Klickitat county board is conaid'
ering the feasibility of the immediate
reconstruction of the Klickitat bridge
recently carried away by a freshet.
C. W. Gilhouaen, the photographer,
exhibits some very handsome photo
graphs at Pease & Mays' store. These
will be changed frequently for others.
Next to snow, mud is the best medium
for sleigh runners. There were one or
two farmers in this morning on sleds
who said there was plenty of snow with
in a few hundred yards of the city.
We had the pleasure today of being
shown by Mr. H. J. Maier a curiosity in
the shape of some verv antiquated In
dian relics, which are well worth seeing.
They will for a few days be on exhibit
tion at the store of Maier & Benton.
Editor Cradlebaugh cannot forego a
joke, even in mournful events. Speak
ing of the death of Charles Mercer, who
in his lifetime handled ice, he concludes
an eulogy as follows : "Peace to your
spirit, old friend, and may it find abid
ing place where your old calling need
not be pursued."
Mr. M. M. Waterman, a prosperous
farmer of 8-Mile, called on this office to
day. Mr. Waterman is of the opinion
that there will be a much larger acreage
of grain in Wasco county this year than
ever before. His experience in wheat
raising for the market has not been one
that has been renumerative. His idea
is that the farmer Bhould look more to
diversified farming, and not depend so
much on wheat.
"We are "busily engaged renovating the interior
of our store, and trying to make it a fitting recep
tacle for our Spring Stock.
This year -we have devoted at least twice the
amount of time and care in selecting and purchas

warded by us being able to exhibit to our custom

Discharged all the Boys.
Mr. W. Lord returned from the Cas
cade Locks last night. He confirms the
reports as to the expedition going on and
says they are working with might and
main and accomplishing great results.
Thursday night an incendiary fire oc
curred at the shed over the air com
pressor. It was extinguished after
some difficulty, but for a time en
dangered the large shed over the stone
cutters which is 300 feet long and fifty
feet high and rigged with trolleys.
Since the Day Brothers have lost their
suit for damages, they have discharged
everyone on the works less than 21 years
of age. They feel aggrieved, at the ver
dict, believing they were in no ways res
ponsible for the accident. The action of
discharging all minors has proven a
hardship to many families living at the
Locks.
Surprise Party.
A very pleasant surprise party was
given the Misses Grace and Bertha Will
erton, last evening at their home in
honor of their 14th and 12th birthdays
respectively. Games and refreshments
were the order of the evening. At a late
hour the friends departed to their differ
ent homes, feeling satisfied that they
could enjoy themselves regardless of
'hard times." Those present were:
Misses Grace and Bertha Willerton,
Sadie Allen, Francis Parrot, Bessie
Snipes, Grace Hobson, Sadie Fowler,
Addie Payne, and Ninon Oaks, Mairters
Ivan Oaks, George Chandler, John and
James Cooper, Lawrence Fowler and
Earnest Willerton.
Car Load of apples.
Walla Walla Union.
Last week W. S. Offner shipped a ear
load of apples to St. Joe, Missouri. The
apples, about 15 tons, were not boxed
but shipped in bulk over the Union
Pacific at the cost of a cent a pound.
Agent Biesell is advised by telegraph
that the apples were received at St. Joe
in fine condition. This is the first ship
ment in bulk made from Walla Walla,
and as it proved successful there is good
reason to suppose that many more ship
ments of the same kind will be made.
Just full of improvements Dr. Pierce's
P'easant Pellets. To begin with, they're
the smallest and the easiest to take.
They're tiny, sugar-coated anti-bilious
granules, scarcely larger than mustard
seeds. Every child is ready for them.
Then, after they're taken, instead of
disturbing and shocking the system,
they act in a mild, easy and natural
way. There's no chance for any reaction
afterward. Their help lasts. Constipa
tion, Indigestion, Bilions Attacks, Sick
or Bilious Headaches, and all derange
ments of the liver, stomach and bowels,
are promptly relieved and permanently
cured.
They're put up in glass vials, which
keep them always fresh and reliable, un
like the ordinary pills in wooden or
pasteboard boxes. .
And they're the cheapest pills you can
buy, for thev're guaranteed to give satis
faction, or your money is returned.
You pay only for the good yon get.

CIRCUIT COURT-
In Heald vs. Chandler Plaintiff Wins
Ed. Henderson's Case.
After a three days trial of the case of
Heald vs. Chandler, it was finally given
to the jury. The latter returned a ver
dict for plaintiff, giving her possession of
the farm, and awarding her damages in
the sum of $41.0S.
Ed. Henderson came up after dinner
on the charge of resisting arrest. Hen
derson is a young man, and this after
noon there Eat beside him his wife and
little daughter, about 3 years old, and
Henderson's sister. The child was rest'
less enough, but the ladies were as in
tent upon the trial as the defendant
himself. The first witness called was J
H. Jackson, the officer whom he re
sisted. This was several months since
near Dufur. While Jackson was read
ing the warrant, Henderson leaned over
on his saddle and presented a pistol at
Jackson's head. He thus escaped
though some shots were sent after his re
treating horse. Jackson was allowed to
proceed with his testimony until the
warrant was produced which he read to
Hendersoa. It was passed to Attorney
Bennett, who after reading it, pro-
nounced it invalid, illegal and of no
bearing before the present jury. He
therefore petitioned that its contents be
not submitted to the jury. After
lengthy arguments by himself and the
prosecuting attorney, it was finally de
cided to be admissable, and was read be
fore the jury. The warrant was issued
in Waterville, Wash., by Justice of the
Peace C. L. Davis.

Northwest Apples.
At the fruitgrowers convention in
Spokane yesterday Mr. Barnett was
sked regarding the best fruits for the
eastern markets. He said: "Your
pples here are such an improvement on
the eastern varieties that I cannot give
you the information i Almost any
earn pie 6hown here would be good sellers
the eastern market. The apple
bringing the highest price in the Chi
cago market is the Northern Spy and
the next is the Baldwin; that is for
January. For December the first best
is the Rhode Island Greening and the
Spitzenberg and apples of that class.
You want something that will please
the eye and is of the best quality possi
ble with it, besides that it have good
size. Of course von, must be interested
n the producing quality. But remem
ber the eye dictates very iargely as to
what the customer will buy. All, or
nearly all, of your fruits will be sold
from the fruit stands by the Italians or
the Greeks. It is from their greasy
nickels that you get your crisp bank
notes. Send us the best apples you can,
and if you can give us good first-class
Spitzenburgs oh my ! We want them.
The only Spitzenbergs I have seen lately
that looked like the Spitzenberg of my
youth I have eeen here today."
